ZEPDRIX
Zepdrix is the Zeppelin/Hendrix project led by Jeff Pevar & Inger Nova Jorgensen — a focused exploration of two of rock’s most influential catalogs.
Jeff Pevar (David Crosby, CSN, Ray Charles, Phil Lesh, Jefferson Starship, Joe Cocker) navigates the full guitar architecture of Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin, handling the Hendrix vocals with phrasing and tone that draw from the source without slipping into imitation. His approach balances reverence with risk — honoring the recordings while embracing the improvisational elasticity that made them timeless.
Inger Nova Jorgensen fronts the Zeppelin material, taking on Robert Plant’s range and dynamic intensity while bringing a distinctly feminine presence to the repertoire. Her vocals soar where they need to, pull back when the song demands it, and carry both power and nuance. Rather than mimicry, she inhabits the emotional core of the music — tension, sensuality, mysticism, release — re-framing familiar songs through a different lens without diminishing their force.
The most recent incarnation features the East Coast rhythm section of Adrian Tramontano (drums) and David Livolsi (bass). In this power trio format, Pevar covers the full harmonic landscape while Livolsi and Tramontano create a deep, responsive pocket — giving the music space to stretch, breathe, and evolve.
Since launching in 2014, Zepdrix has grown from a one-off performance into a serious live project, appearing on major PNW stages including the Oregon Country Fair Main Stage, along with theaters and clubs on both coasts.
Past lineups have included Paul Turnipseed (guitar), Matt Spencer (bass), Christo Pellani (drums), Jacob Ackerman (bass), and Matthew Kriemelman (drums).
Zepdrix treats this catalog as living repertoire — studied, internalized, and re-expressed in real time. It’s not revivalism; it’s conversation.
